;
; This file is intended to serve two purposes:
;
; 1) To provide a reference to the myriad of ESCAPE codes used in the
; Hewlett Packard printer control language (PCL) for the various
; models of HP Laser Printers.
;
; 2) As a data file for a series of utilities that operate on PCL files
; to display the contents in an intelligable manner and provide some
; filtering and editing capabilities. (Utilities are in the works!)
;
; The primary source of information for this file has been the HP LaserJet
; Series II Technical Reference Manual and other various sources such as the
; file ESC_CODE.ARC by S. Noh (SYSOP Form Feed LaserJet BBS (210) 869-1327)
; found on many bulletin boards.
;
; The list as presented is sorted on Functional Area, then by Escape code
; sequence. You can easily adjust this by passing the file through the
; DOS or other SORT utility of your choice.
;
; To enable this document to stay up to date, I encourage anybody with
; knowledge greater than mine to add any codes they know of to the list,
; but to retain the format provided as this will be expected by the PCL
; utilities when they are done. Where the availability on a printer model
; is unknown, a ? appears in the availability column. For those codes
; that have a user defined numeric field, the comment ends with "= #'.
; This will cause the PCL display utility to fill in the value when
; analyzing the PCL file.
;
; The original file name that I have distributed is called PCL100.ARC. In
; order to keep some track of the state of updates to the file I suggest
; that if you upload it without any changes to another board, you retain
; the same name, if you contribute some additional information, add one
; to the file name (i.e. PCL101.ARC). A history section is provided at
; the end of the file for you to record your name and any additional info
; you think may be useful to others on this topic (optional). Just start
; line with a semicolon (;) to indicate that it is a comment.
